TLDR
In this article, the benefits of peak load electricity pricing are estimated by considering the demand curves of different types of consumers within each subperiod and considering the welfare gains associated with demand meters.About:

The theory of maximum kW demand charges for electricity
TL;DR: In this paper, a utility maximization (cost minimization) model is used to derive consistent demand curves, which are shown potentially to be subject to discontinuities, and the authors show how such charges complicate interpretations of past estimates of the industrial demand for electricity.

Observed Temperature Effects on Hourly Residential Electric LoadReduction in Response to an Experimental Critical Peak PricingTariff
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the response of residential customers to high-price critical events dispatched under critical peak pricing tariffs tested in the 2003-2004 California Statewide Pricing Pilot.

Observed Temperature Effects on Hourly Residential Electric Load Reduction in Response to an Experimental Critical Peak Pricing Tariff
TL;DR: Herter et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated the manual and automated response of residential customers to high-price "critical" events dispatched under critical peak pricing tariffs tested in the 2003-2004 California Statewide Pricing Pilot.
Regulating the Electricity Industry
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the major insights of the economics literature regarding regulation of the electricity industry is presented, and the impact of different regulation methods on welfare is reviewed, the relationship between investment and market power is addressed in detail.

Collective-Consumption Services of Individual-Consumption Goods
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that certain commodities of a pure individual-consumption variety also possess characteristics of pure collective-consumers good, and that when individual consumption goods cannot be provided profitably by private enterprise, it may serve the social welfare to subsidize their production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Peak Load Pricing in the Electric Utility Industry
TL;DR: In contrast to the conclusions of traditional peak-load pricing theory, the existence of a heterogeneous capital stock means that off-peak marginal cost prices almost always should include some marginal capacity costs, and that the profit maximizing regulated electric utility may set peak price above marginal cost and off peak price below marginal cost in order to encourage the expansion of capital intensive base load generating capacity.

A Mathematical Formulation of the Peak-Load Pricing Problem
TL;DR: In this article, the authors formulates peak-load pricing problems using mathematical micromodels, where the optimal strategy chosen for the public utility is that of maximizing the social satisfaction derived from services provided.
